What universities can I realistically apply to for MS in CS?

Question

I intend to do a MS in CS in fall of 2017. I'm not sure what colleges I can expect to get into. My profile is:

  • GRE - 323 (Quant: 168, Verbal: 155), AWA: 4.5
  • TOEFL - 116/120
  • GPA - 3.6/4
  • Internship  - 1 (6 month)
  • Work experience - 1.5 years at a decent company (software engineer)
  • No paper publications
  • Recommendations: 2 strong , 1 average

What schools can I expect to get into? Do I have a chance of any top 20 schools or would that be too ambitious? What schools might I have a reasonable shot at?

Which of these universities do I have a shot at:

Ambitious:

  • Georgia Tech
  • UCSD (San Diego)
  • UIUC (Illinois)
  • U Texa, Austin

Reach:

  • USC (Southern California)
  • Duke
  • NYU
  • Purdue

Safe:

  • NC State

Not sure what my chances are. What safe schools can I get into and what would be reasonably in my reach? 

Thanks
